RENTER REQUIREMENTSFor legal and accounting purposes, the person placing the reservation must be the same as the credit/debit card holder. This person is considered to be the guest. All other persons involved with the rental are considered to be the guest's invitees, and all discussion regarding reservation, cancellation, and damage policies will be discussed with the guest, not the guest's invitees. Guest(s) understand that the person entering into the lease agreement must be present during the vacation stay. Specifically, no parent, grandparent, or other person may enter into the lease agreement and allow persons under the age of 25 to occupy the property without the person signing the lease to be present and supervise.

The owners of the vacation properties require that McLean Company book their homes with individuals that are: (1) families, (2) business owners, their employees, or their representatives, and (3) other responsible groups. Notwithstanding the above, fraternities, sororities, and other associations that are primarily comprised of individuals under 25 years old are not permitted to reserve and stay in MCR represented vacation properties.

By signing this lease agreement you acknowledge that you are of the age of 25 (or older), to sign this lease agreement and will be bound by all City and State laws.

DOWN PAYMENT/ PAYMENTA 50% deposit payment is required upon booking. Final payment will be required prior to checking-in to your vacation rental. All rental amounts and rental fees should be made payable to McLean Company. A deposit is required in the amount of one-half of the total rental cost, plus Trip Interruption/Cancellation Insurance if purchased. A copy of guest(s) credit card and driver’s license must be furnished to McLean Company in order to reserve property.

TEMPORARY STAY AGREEMENT

Guest(s) acknowledges and understands that this is a vacation rental agreement for temporary vacation stay at a managed vacation rental property. This agreement is not a lease and conveys no rights in real property. By agreeing to these terms and conditions, you stipulate that you have not and will not receive a real property interest in or rights to the vacation rental property. This rental agreement is unique to Guest and may not be sublet or otherwise assigned to any other persons. If the property is a condominium, then Guest agrees to abide by all condominium association rules where applicable.

CANCELLATIONS

In the event that you must cancel your reservation, please notify us in writing as soon as possible. If written notice is received at least 30 calendar days prior to your arrival date, refunds of advanced payments will be refunded, less a $100 cancellation fee. Reservations of one month or greater, cancellation notice must be received at least 60 calendar days prior to your arrival. If your reservation also includes the $89.00 deposit waiver, this option is non-refundable. If cancellation occurs within 30 calendar days of your arrival date, or 60 days of your arrival for a month or longer reservation, any refund is subject to the ability of Manager to re-rent the property. Every effort will be made to re-rent the property. However, if the property is not re-rented, no money will be refunded. If the property is re-rented, all monies received, less a $100 cancellation fee will be refunded.

Any canceled reservation held for 120 days or longer will result in a forfeiture of all monies paid. If we are able to re-rent the property for the nights you have cancelled, after the guest checks-in you will receive a refund for the nights re-booked; refund subject to standard $100 cancellation fee.

RENTAL OCCUPANCYGuest(s) understands that rental rates are based upon a maximum of two persons per bedroom. Children are counted in total occupancy, unless they are under the age of two. Occupancy (having more than two persons per bedroom) is a serious violation and breach of these Terms and Conditions, and Manager reserves the right to deny access or to have the premises vacated with no refund of monies.

NUMBER OF GUESTSChange in number of guests/conduct of guests: guest(s) agrees that more than the number of people stated on the reservation shall not occupy the premises. Unauthorized people at the vacation rental at any time could result in extra charges for each additional guest, in addition to any and all damage, disturbance, and cleaning charges. The rental is not intended for parties, nor gatherings at any time of anyone except those who have paid to occupy the property. Exceptions are made on an individual basis - please contact McLean Company for prior approval. If there is excessive noise or music, any illegal activity, or evidence of violation of these policies, you may be asked to vacate the premise without any refund and additional charges may be assessed. Please inform us of any change in the number of guests before your arrival to avoid these charges and so the cabin can be prepared appropriately for your group. No exceptions or refunds are given for changes in the number of guests after your arrival.

Should a police call be required as the result of noise, nuisance, trash, underage drinking, parking, over occupancy without exception or any other reason, the occupancy will be void with no refund due.

EVENTS POLICY

Unless otherwise authorized in writing by Manager, no celebrations, parties or other events (collectively "events") are to be held at the vacation rental property during your occupancy. Holding an event without receiving prior approval, permit or permission from Management is considered an abuse and breach of these Terms and Conditions and cause for immediate termination of Occupancy. Upon any infraction of rules, Manager may at its sole option, terminate all agreements with you, including termination of occupancy immediately. In this event, you will forfeit all monies, including security deposits.

GOOD NEIGHBOR POLICY

Guest(s) agrees to abide by all rules and regulations set forth by local ordinances, which includes a "Good Neighbor Policy". You are advised to keep in mind that vacation rental properties are located in quiet private neighborhoods. Please respect our neighbors. The cities of Palm Springs, Cathedral City, Rancho Mirage, Palm Desert, Indio and La Quinta have an ordinance that prohibits the use of outdoor music of any kind in vacation rental homes. Anyone found to be violating noise ordinances will be subject to a $250 fine and/or eviction without refund. This includes, without limitation, limiting sound amplification outdoors, over occupying parking areas, over occupying rental property, and failing to follow your agreement with Property Manager.

DAMAGE POLICYAs a condition to the rental of all vacation properties, McLean Company reserves the right to charge the guest's credit card for any and all uncovered guest/invitee caused losses and damages sustained to the vacation property throughout the duration of their period of occupancy.

DAMAGE WAIVER

We provide an optional Damage Insurance Protection Policy in lieu of a cash Security Deposit. The damage waiver covers unintentional damages to the rental unit interior that occur during your stay, provided they are disclosed to management prior to check-out. The policy will pay a maximum benefit of $800. Any damages that exceed $800 will be charged to the credit card on file from the renter.

SECURITY DEPOSIT

Should Guest opt to pay a cash security deposit, the security deposit will be used by McLean Company, at its sole discretion, to pay for restoration of the property to move-in conditions, other than for normal wear and tear (“additional costs”.)

Additional Costs include without limitation, cleaning beyond normal wear and tear, removing excessive garbage, repairing or replacing any part of the premises, its contents, common areas and recreational facilities for damage caused after your move-in. In the event that said deposit is insufficient, you agree to allow MCR to charge your credit card on file to pay the additional costs or may send you an invoice that is payable in full upon receipt.

If all terms and conditions of the agreement are fulfilled the deposit will be returned in full within 14-21 BUSINESS DAYS AFTER DEPARTURE.
